Question

I have poor credit, due to having a credit card open for only a year, and I closed it, then it went onto collections. I was told in order to have credit, you have to have credit open for atleast 3 years. Well now with a credit score in the 500's from something from 4 years ago, no one will give me a credit card or loan so how do i re-build? Thanks

Your Credit Scores Should Be Free. And Now They Are.
